You can't even believe you're still in Texas with this Agave Real wedding at the Spanish inspired venues at Agave Estates in Katy. Itzel and Lupe's wedding was fun filled and I couldn't get enough of the blush colors of her wedding and how it went perfectly with the colors of the venue. The bouquet from Agave Brothers (the on-site florist for the venue) was huge and Itzel's reaction to seeing it for the first time was one with her mouth wide open admiring the peonies and roses.
A Texas bluebonnet engagement session with more wildflowers and large oak trees? Yes please! I was pretty thrilled when Brittany suggested doing a session in the flowers but of course, timing is the most important thing with the 2 week flowering window. After having a weird non-winter and warm February in totally unpredictable Texas style, this day in March was freezing. It was the one day that was windy and cold the whole month but thankfully the quilt came in good use to keep them warm. The light looked amazing and the bluebonnets were really blooming in Brenham.
This Hermann Park engagement was a new adventure featuring Kate, Cameron, and their 3 adorable dogs. I have had shoots with dogs before, but never 2 rottweilers and a pug! I knew there would be some adventure wandering through the crowded park with 3 dogs in tow. Thanks to Cameron's parents for their last minute trip to help wrangle the herd! This was an unseasonably warm Saturday in mid-February but with Texas you never know what you might get in the morning, then could snow by the afternoon. We still wanted to do the cute blanket shot at the end though it might involve sweating.
This was sadly was my last high school senior photography session for the class of 2015, but we had the chance to go out one more time this year to Nelson's Landing after a massive rain storm the day before would have made the dry lake bed a mud bath... or so we thought! Either way we stuck to the plan and shot around the ghost town until the sun set behind the canyon walls.
Hands down I think the dry lake bed is my favorite location for the Vegas area, but this was my first shoot there for senior pictures. Avea definitely rocked her shoot... especially when I found out about being in cheer in the past when I asked her to jump for one of the shots. I didn't expect this petite girl to launch off the lake bed like she had springs in her bare feet.
